In geometry, a ray is defined as a line that ends on one side, and keeps going on the other. It is drawn by placing a dot on one side of a line, and an arrow on the other side.

Help with basic geometry terms: lines, points, segments, and rays. Brought to you by Math League Multimedia. ... A ray is one of the basic terms in geometry. We may think of a ray as a "straight" line that begins at a certain point and extends forever in one direction. The point where the ray begins is known as its endpoint.

A ray is a line that starts at a given point and goes off for ever in some direction. It may pass through another point as it does so. This is the same as the definition of a Ray in ordinary plane geometry, the only difference being that we know the coordinates of the points involved.

An interactive applet and associated web page that show the definition of a ray in coordinate geometry. The applet has two points that the user can drag. The two points define a ray, one of them the endpoint, the other a secondary point through which the ray passes.

 Geometry shaders do not really shade anything, they create scene elements, primarily geometric objects. For this purpose, they use a special geometry shader API that is analogous to the ... This means that geometry shaders compiled for mental ray 2.1 will not, in general, work with mental ray 3.x, and vice versa!
